Seeun Kim – The Oxford Global Agenda Project 2026
Wednesday 14 January to Saturday 28 February 2026
Today, we live in a global society. Because our world is made up of many different kinds of people, Seeun believes that an individual’s responsibility extends beyond themselves and includes their role within the wider community. The challenges faced by individuals, societies, and states differ depending on their cultural contexts and the institutions that shape them. In many ways, we may already think of the world as an international family or a community of global neighbours.
Seeun believes that the purpose of society is to help us grow, progress and find happiness. Inspired by this idea, she has created a range of social art projects that merge jewellery with global societal issues. Her work centres on jewellery and metal objects informed by the humanities and social sciences. Alongside these, she uses photography and film to express her ideas in the most inclusive ways possible—incorporating text, British Sign Language, and English braille.
She hopes her work offers viewers a moment for self-reflection and greater awareness. Through her practice, she communicates her thoughts with courage and imagines a society where everyone can live with a smile. Her projects have enabled her to engage with diverse audiences around the world.
In 2026, Seeun will present her new societal art projects <The Society Project – Our Life Arena> / Arts & Social Science Series, <The Wings Project – Our Lost Environment> / Arts & Environment Series, <The Village Project – What Happened to Our Children?> / Arts & Social Justice Series and <The Garden Project – Our Diversity> / Arts & Humanities Series at the Cornerstone Arts Centre.
Her solo exhibition <The Oxford Global Agenda Project 2026> is celebrating World Education Day and World Social Justice Day.
